¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, my second supplementary question is this.

¶ 02 We know reforms were to start this year for Grades 1 and 6. When we began, the Opposition created a big outcry and opposed it, so the Grade 6 reforms could not commence. What preparations exist now for Grade 6, and when will it start?
